Part 1 of 4 Exercise Induced Collapse

This is my border collie Allie. She is nine years old. She has a disorder where after about 5 - 10 min she will collapse. This particular time only took 8 min for her to collapse. This is her first time collapsing in about 1.5 yrs because I normally prevent it by throwing the ball no more than 10 times and just taking it easy. But for research sake this is a onetime ONLY where I induced a collapse for the sake of research in hopes of learning more and possibly finding a cure. This video is part 1 of 4. In this video you will meet Allie when she is calm and at what pace she starts out running after her ball.

My belgian tervuren has the same syndrome! She's 3 and it began when she was 1. I hope that someday, they will find the cause of that disorder!

Thanks for posting this. I was referred to this video by a friend that knows about my own girl and her condition. She just turned 4, but has been seriously affected by this since she was a little over 2.  I recognize all of the signs...the aimless wandering, the stiff gait, the collapse, the lack of blinking and the extremely heavy breathing. I have submitted my information and a blood sample to the study and hopefully we will be able to identify the gene and maybe reduce the incident of this
